中国现代主义诗歌的昆明大阵观——西南联大诗歌群落的崛起与殒落

摘要

西南联大原为抗日战争大后方的高校重镇，由于英国诗人暨新批评大将威廉燕卜逊和民国第一诗人冯至的坐镇，并诞生了穆旦、杜运燮、郑敏、王佐良等多位“联大诗歌种籽”，而成为当时中国现代主义诗歌的大本营，顺畅地维系着国统区的诗歌美学运作，也交出了许多重量级的现代主义诗歌。从文学形象来说，那是一座镇守着中国现代主义诗歌的昆明大阵。本文紧扣着战争的大背景，从昆明的人文地理、个别诗人的战争体验、现代主义诗歌美学的传承，剖析了一批出自乱世的顶尖诗篇。西南联大的诗歌群落能够在抗日战争期间写下他们此生最辉煌的诗篇，也算是诗史的一项奇迹。

Abstract

The Southwest Associated University was originally a major university in the rear of the Anti-Japanese War. Because of the presence of British poet and new critic William Empson and the first poet Feng Zhi of the Republic of China, Mu Dan, Du Yunxie, Zheng Min, Wang Zuoliang, and many other "seeds of the poetry of the Associated University", it became the stronghold of Chinese modernist poetry at that time, smoothly maintaining the operation of poetry aesthetics in the Guomindang District, and also created many significant modernist poetries. From the perspective of the literary image, it is a large Kunming array guarding Chinese modernist poetry. This article is closely tied to the background of war, from the cultural geography of Kunming, the war experience of individual poets, and the inheritance of modernist poetry aesthetics, it analyzes a batch of top poems from troubled times. The poetry community of Southwest Associated University was able to write the most glorious poems of their lives during the Anti-Japanese War, which is also a miracle in the history of poetry.
